Pros

They have the best product line on the market. Excellent grower program. I worked at a home office which was a bonus. Salary was good as well as bonus. Freedom to work when you want as long as the work gets done. Plenty of training. Lots of sales and agronomic support. Room for advancement in most positions.

Cons

Product line is getting big and its hard to be an expert on everything. Some internal procedures such as credit card reconciliation have become time consuming and burdensome. They have added extra staff which is a mixed blessing because in many cases sales staff are competing against each other for the same customer. The company preaches compliance and ethics yet I can provide many examples of management and staff not practising what they preach.

Pros

Better pay than other companies My team - full of hardworking and knowledgable individuals.

Cons

Leadership/Management - can be micromanaging at times and not a lot of guidance/resources being provided. Projects can change swiftly at Bayer, and most of the times there's no background context given. Work/life balance - asked to be "flexible" with schedule for last-minute requests, then criticized for having life/responsibilities outside of work. Also, these last minute requests reflect poor planning on management. Lack of team morale - seems like it's all work and not a lot of play. Burnout culture and not a lot of incentives to perform better.
